Saxophoniste ténor au son exceptionnel, à l’approche sensible et au sens inné du langage musical, Chantal De Villiers est née à Montréal dans une famille de musiciens. Son père, un pianiste professionnel, l’a exposé à la musique dès son plus jeune âge. Elle choisit de jouer du saxophone ténor à l’âge de 15 ans. Elle poursuit ses études à la Faculté de musique de l’Université de Montréal, où elle obtient son baccalauréat.

Au cours des années suivantes, Chantal De Villiers se produit dans toutes sortes d’événements, dans différentes formations, en duos, trios, quatuors et quintettes. La musique étant une force majeure dans sa famille, la relation musicale qu’elle développe avec son père l’aide à trouver son style. Le son riche et feutré de son saxophone rappelle les grands maîtres du jazz qui l’ont influencé, tels que Dexter Gordon, Ben Webster, Scott Hamilton, Stan Getz, Eddie Harris et Gene Ammons.

Funky Princess alias Chantal De Villiers présentera une variété de pièces musicales choisies en fonction des “grooves” inspirés des années 70 et de son album Funky Princess. Elle ajoutera également de nouvelles compositions à son répertoire avec son quatuor Taurey Butler au piano, Ira Coleman à la basse et Rich Irwin à la batterie.

A tenor saxophonist with an exceptional sound, a sensitive approach and an innate sense of musical language, Chantal De Villiers was born in Montreal into a family of musicians. Her father, a professional pianist, exposed her to music at an early age. She chose to play the tenor saxophone at the age of 15. She continued her studies at the Faculty of Music of the Université de Montréal, where she obtained her Bachelor’s degree.

During the following years, Chantal De Villiers performed in all kinds of events, in different formations, in duos, trios, quartets and quintets. Music being a major force in her family, the musical relationship she developed with her father helped her find her style. The rich and muffled sound of her saxophone is reminiscent of the great jazz masters who have influenced her, such as Dexter Gordon, Ben Webster, Scott Hamilton, Stan Getz, Eddie Harris and Gene Ammons.

Funky princess alias Chantal De Villiers will present a variety of songs chosen according to the grooves inspired by the 70’s and her album Funky Princess. She will also add new compositions to her repertoire with her quartet Taurey Butler on piano, Ira Coleman on bass and Rich Irwin on drums.
